They could make it so PB doesn't effect Farsight AT ALL, Def or Tohit, and it wouldn't break the cottage rule, because PB has not been changed in the slightest. They could flag EVERY POWER in Time to not allow Power Boost to effect it and it still wouldn't break the cottage rule, because the power in question, Power Boost, still works Exactly the Same. The cottage rule applies to the power being changed. Would the change to Farsight break the cottage rule for Farsight? No, absolutely not.

For example, PB used to buff Knockback. Removing that did not break the cottage rule, and that effected MANY more powers than this.

PB improves -Speed and -Defense as well and +End. That's 5 powers OTHER than Farsight that benefit. 6 including. Far more than many sets. Making PB not effect one part of one power does not break the cottage rule, sorry. If you really think so then you may not understand the cottage rule.

It can be both op and unnecessary, they are not in conflict. it doesn’t nullify a power, time still benefits from PB in several ways, and people can respec if they want but they don’t have to. how does it break the cottage rule?

All the circuit powers can chain to the caster and yes can chain from the sentinel to the caster or teammates or other pets when solo or teamed.

You want to nerf ALL Time characters so those with Power Boost can keep this one unnecessary thing? and people are arguing defense buffs don’t even matter at the endgame and only damage matters...

No, let’s not ignore that, because that does not help your case, given all the Other tools Time has and FF does not.

We know from powers such as Ground Zero that it is possible to make a power target BOTH allies AND enemies at the same time. Is it conceivable that Electrical Affinity Circuit powers (ONLY the Circuit powers) could be made to TARGET Enemies even though it has no effect on them, and then immediately chain back to allies?

Darkness Affinity was a Pay to Play set and so the devs would have been reluctant to fix it even if they knew about the problem. That's no longer a consideration.

Practiced Brawler, Active Defense, Light Form, Dwarf Form....I don’t know what else.

That’s ALL it does. Time does that and a lot more.

Carp Melee

True enough, but changing that is a Huge ask.

Yes. With Fade.

This bug lets Damage buffs improve the resistance. There is no way that can stay in.

Other aoe heals are usable solo at lvl 1

I'm not sure why the defense isn't being boosted. Possibly a bug, or possibly the power is flagged to not receive buffs but we can't see the flag, which I guess could also be a bug.

It's not that useful against minions, true. It's VERY useful against Bosses.

You're better off creating a macro to target it.

Awesome! Hoping for later additions of locks for each slot so we can selectively randomize and colorize. And also hoping for, when the time comes, asymmetrical chest and legs options as well.

Love the Leadership activation time change, thanks!

It's not a nerf, it's a bug fix.

This looks amazing, thank you, thank you!

Power Boost has also never boosted Recovery, only + or - Endurance.

Power Boost abilities have NEVER included Regen, only Heals. Test is down right now or I'd double check, but I believe the AB version does not include Defense, intentionally.
